recently one of the authors of this blog took his life to a new level. a shift upward into the unknown. from living in the comfort and security of a life that that had slowly perfected itself, to an improbable situation which leans towards uncertainty and relies on grace and patience of others. having not forgot former things, the author goes out on this adventure not in an attempt to forget the past and start anew, but rather as an ambassador of the things that created him in their image. he goes out on this adventure because he loves the former things to such a great extent. a necessary departure in hope of a safe return.
